My husband Can Cultivate-Chapter 325 Are You Questioning the Prefecture Master of Lei Mansion?

"What audacity!"

Xiong Ba waved his hand, and his fiercest subordinate, Zhang Bao, rushed forward. With a single punch, he sent Wang Ba to the floor, crippling both his legs.

"I was wrong! I was wrong, Brother Ba! Spare me, Brother Ba, I'll never do it again!" Wang Ba begged, kowtowing repeatedly.

"Throw him out!" Xiong Ba waved his hand again. He couldn't be bothered with such insignificant people. If this scum hadn't offended Yang Qi, their paths would have never crossed.

Terrified, Wang Ba's subordinates scattered. Not one dared to remain.

"Mr. Yang, is there anything else?" Xiong Ba asked, stepping forward with clasped hands.

"That's all. You can go," Yang Qi said with a wave. He then turned to the crowd still waiting in line. "What are you all still doing here? Waiting for a free meal?" he asked coldly.

The group glanced at Xiong Ba, then turned and left.

Xiong Ba was indeed someone they couldn't afford to provoke.

Watching this scene, Song Ruize was practically exploding with rage.

He could have made a fortune. Now, he wouldn't get a single penny. It was all because of this Yang Qi. That damn Yang Qi!

"You little brat! You ruined my plans! I won't let you get away with this!" Song Ruize roared.

Yang Qi couldn't be bothered with him, instead turning to Yao Ran. "Do you know about the Elixir Medicine Conference?"

"What? Mr. Yang, you want to sign up?" Yao Ran was ecstatic. "If you register, that would be wonderful! For years, Kang City has only had Qin Shanshui and Liu Changsheng participating. While their medical skills are decent, their alchemy is a bit lacking. Because of that, Kang City's ranking in the Elixir Medicine Conference has always been quite low. If you can register, it would be absolutely phenomenal news for us!"

"Wait a minute. Kang City still wants to participate in the Elixir Medicine Conference? Are you going just to make fools of yourselves? There are thirty-six cities of various sizes in Jingnan Prefecture. Your Kang City isn't small, yet you consistently rank at the bottom. It's truly a disgrace. You still want to go and be humiliated?" Song Ruize suddenly chimed in.

"What does it have to do with you?" Yang Qi shot Song Ruize a cold glance. "Mind your own business."

"What does it have to do with me? Let me tell you, this Elixir Medicine Conference is being hosted by the Lei Family of Jingnan Prefecture. The Elixir Medicine Association and the National Medicine Association are the ones in charge. You tell me what it has to do with me?" Song Ruize looked Yang Qi up and down with disdain. "A punk like you participating in the Elixir Medicine Conference? That's hilarious. Kang City has become more and more pathetic over the years. Qin Shanshui is gone. Liu Changsheng is old. Are you now finding some trash to make up the numbers? You don't actually believe he's the one who developed the elixirs for the Qifei Group, do you?"

"I don't know how I compare to others, but against a shameless old fool like you, victory is guaranteed," Yang Qi said sarcastically. "If an old man like you shows no decency, don't expect any respect in return!"

"Hmph, sharp-tongued brat!" Song Ruize snorted. "Let me tell you, a morally corrupt person like you isn't qualified to participate in the Elixir Medicine Conference. As long as I'm here, you can forget about it!" 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

"By what right?" Yao Ran grew anxious. He knew very well how capable Yang Qi was. If Yang Qi participated, Kang City was sure to achieve great results this time. For Song Ruize to bar him with a single sentence was simply too outrageous.

"Song Ruize, don't think you can do whatever you want just because you're the president of the Elixir Medicine Association," Yao Ran said. "This isn't your decision alone. The president of the National Medicine Association also has a say."

Song Ruize sneered. "If I say he can't participate, he can't participate. I know the president of the National Medicine Association; a word with him is all it takes. You ask by what right? By the right of being the President of the Jingnan Prefecture Elixir Medicine Association! By the right that he offended me! And by the right that he just ruined my plans!"

"You're certainly brazenly shameless!" Yang Qi laughed.

Then again, this man dares to sit in the Elixir Medicine Association and take bribes. It seems there's nothing he wouldn't do.

Song Ruize sneered, "So what if I am? If you want to participate in the Elixir Medicine Conference, that's fine too. Kneel here, give me ten loud kowtows, and I'll consider it! HAHAHA! I never thought payback would come so fast. To think you'd be begging me so soon!"

"Who do you think you are that I should beg you?" Yang Qi retorted mockingly. "I, Yang Qi, kneel to no one but heaven, earth, and my parents. What kind of cur are you to demand that I kneel?"

Song Ruize's expression changed drastically before turning cold. "Fine! You've got guts, you're tough! In that case, you can forget about participating in the Elixir Medicine Conference!"

"Heh. You think I can't participate just because you say so? Let me tell you something. I'm definitely participating in this Elixir Medicine Conference. Not only am I participating, but I'm also going straight to the finals, skipping the preliminaries and semifinals. You think you can stop me? You dare act so high and mighty with your speck of authority?" Yang Qi scoffed.

"What did you say? You're going straight to the finals? Then why did you seek out Yao Ran?" Song Ruize was stunned.

"I was just giving him a heads-up, not asking him to register me," Yang Qi said sarcastically.

"Impossible! That's absolutely impossible!" Song Ruize shouted. "I don't believe it! How could something like that happen?"

"And why not?" Yang Qi chuckled. "I know you don't believe it. If you don't, why not call the Prefecture Master at Lei Mansion and ask? Just ask and you'll have your answer. What's the point of obsessing over it by yourself?"

"I refuse to believe it!"

Song Ruize dialed the number for Lei Mansion. He didn't have the Prefecture Master's personal number, so he had to be transferred by a secretary. However, the secretary didn't transfer the call, instead answering directly, "That's correct. Mr. Yang Qi will advance directly to the finals."

"What!"

Holding his phone, Song Ruize was completely dumbfounded. How could this be? The Elixir Medicine Conference had been held for many years, but nothing like this—no such precedent—had ever existed.

He couldn't help but say, "This sets a bad precedent, don't you think? Other participants might not be happy."

"Are you questioning the Prefecture Master's decision?" The secretary's voice turned icy cold.

"I wouldn't dare! I wouldn't dare! Since it's the Prefecture Master's decision, it must be brilliant and sagacious."

Song Ruize hurriedly hung up the phone, feeling as though he had just swallowed a bellyful of crap.

"Heh, so it's all cleared up now. I suppose you have no choice but to accept reality," Yang Qi chuckled. "My, are President Song's Divine Skills so profound that you can overturn the Prefecture Master's decision?"

"Don't celebrate too soon. I'll make the Prefecture Master retract his order. I will ruin your reputation before the Elixir Medicine Conference even begins. I'll make you utterly infamous!" Song Ruize said viciously.

"Heh, I'll be waiting," Yang Qi said. "Just be careful you don't get too clever for your own good and end up scheming your own life away."
